Why Aditya Birla Group is big in my life.
Aditya Birla Group has touched millions of lives in the world, including mine. I have always been in awe with the work and expansion the company has been foraying into. Right from the clothes one admires to the cement one uses to build ones’ abode, ABG has been a leader and a premium global conglomerate. I can thoroughly recall my friend using some shiny aluminium sheet in her lunch box and how her food remained fresh till the lunch break. The same day my little self had made my mother buy a packet of
Hindalco’s Freshwrapp. One of my most cherishable memory is of holding a new phone in my hand which was given to me as a birthday present that had a new
Vodafone Idea’s sim card with it. This Idea did change my life.
With a recent shopping spree at
Pantaloons and
People, I managed to cover whole of my new wardrobe. The retail fashion brands of ABG has always been immensely appealing to me, right from casual and in style clothing to formal clothing, when
Van Heusen and
Allen Solly came in handy while joining IIM Raipur. While researching through catalogs, I had also come across the fact that their entire supply chain focuses on delivering products with a reduced environmental footprint. Undoubtedly,
UltraTech Cement has helped many to build their dream homes and I also intend to build mine with them.
Through all it’s brands, ABG has proven that it is the master of all who wants to
Takes India to the World.
How I overcame challenges to achieve my ambitions in life so far.
I had appeared for CAT 2017 but sadly could not make it through to above 80 percentile even. Naturally, I was taken aback and decided to go ahead with a job opportunity at an IT firm. During the course of my work, I started to take deep interest and also excelled at it. I started enjoying my first job in Bangalore. But an MBA at an IIM was my true calling, said my heart one day. So I diligently started getting up early in the morning to prepare and practice for CAT. I started giving mocks in the following month and with that came self-doubts. Just a month was left to go for the test and I was called for a meeting with my manager. I had was going through a tense time when my company offered me an onsite opportunity in the subsequent year if I would continue working for them. I was standing at the edge of two roads, could not decide which road was the right road for me. I could barely think of anything at all for days.
Finally, I made the hardest decision of my life or maybe the softest because it had come from my heart. No guesses here. With coping up with CAT studies followed by Interview Preparations and rejecting a great job opportunity, I had my share of challenges. But overcoming them for an IIM was worth it. I finally realized this when I stepped into the amazing campus IIM Raipur has built for itself.
